Displays good size (6-2, 208 pounds) and solid two-way capabilities. Proved capable of producing good offensive totals in the junior ranks, but he's also a very responsible winger.

Flaws:

Doesn't use his size nearly enough, either in terms of physicality or offensive situations. Needs more work on his game-to-game consistency in the professional ranks.

Career Potential:

Solid, two-way depth winger.
